Barnes is actually a good option:
He would become the best wing defender, and a big upgrade over what it was Antoine Wright last year;

If he was the starting SF last year in Orlando, he can certainly be the starting SF for the Raptors this year;

Obtaining him is going to be very difficult though;At 30 Barnes wants to get paid, that's probably around 4 or even 5 million /year salary and since the Raptors are over the cap and already spent their MLE on Linas Kleiza, the only way to get him would be through S&T with a team that has not spent their own MLE; e.i Indiana, Charlotte, Cleveland;

Also, Cleveland is really hurting after Lebron's exit and are probably willing to overpay Barnes; In the end I think he will likely end up in there.

We could easily trade for him with the a portion of the TPE. Barnes makes sense as Kleiza would be the offensive 3 and barnes the defensive three. If we have to go big then we could put Barnes at the 2. Barnes is a good athlete who can guard two positions really well. He is a pretty good 3 point shooter to go along with the stellar defense. 2 years 3 million a season would be a good contract for both sides.

Never been a huge fan of Barnes, but I admit he's a tough SOB bordering on an asshole. Could be one of those guys we love to have on our team but hate to watch as a rival. Played last 4 years in high-octane offences (2 in Golden State, 1 in Phoenix, 1 in Orlando), so he should fit in without too much trouble if he does sign.

Do the Magic have his Bird rights? I can't remember... Maybe this is an opportunity to trade Jose? Even the small TPE they got might be enough.

EDIT: Just read the above post. If the Magic had his rights he would cause a cap hold on their team until they relinquished it. This would not stop them from re-signing their other free agents or using their MLE or BAE. They could still have his Bird rights if they have it to begin with.

U know what this means????

If Barnes is signed...he will get starting minutes,ie...sf...problem I have there is a lot of guards...barbosa,calderon,jack,derozan,weems,belle nelli,klieza can play sf...something is up...there might be big trade coming up...hopefully...this team needs center and pg...no offense 2 jack..but u know what mean.
